Relegation looms as Ireland last in Aachen

RELEGATION looms larger for Ireland’s showjumpers after the team finished last in the German Nations Cup at Aachen yesterday.

Ireland are now back at the bottom of the Samsung Super League with just the final in Barcelona remaining.

However, it looked as if it would be so different at the German fixture when Corkman Billy Twomey was on his way to a second round clear and leave Ireland as runners-up.
